Applying Peter Jones’s research
TheÌýrationale and findings of Dr Peter Jones’sÌýMarine Protected Area Governance (MPAG)Ìýproject were the basis of his opening presentation on 11 April at a workshop,ÌýTowards Brazil’s NationalÌýTarget 11, organised in Recife, Pernambuco, by Brazil’s Ministry of the Environment andÌýUN Environment.
The meeting was part of a Brazilian initiative to develop a new policy White Paper,ÌýOptions for enhancing management of marine protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, in collaboration with the UN Environment-World Conservation Monitoring Centre, Cambridge.
